The Déhus Dolmen with the mound rebuilt after the excavations of the early 1930s, now surrounded by a well-manicured hedge. Pictured below is the tomb at the start of the twentieth century, with a small boy sat in front of the capstone which has a face and other motifs carved on its underside; these had not yet been noticed when the postcard was sent in August 1904. A view of the remarkable face is shown here.
